After some spelunking, I find that the reason libtool is not determining the correct PIC flags under Solaris is that even though configure determines that the the compiler is the GNU C compiler, this is not properly picked up by libtool. I see this in the generated libtool script: # Is the compiler the GNU C compiler? with_gcc=no even though configure reports the following while it is running: checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes It seems that whatever interface is used to pass this info from Autoconf to libtool (presumably with_gcc environment variable) is not working any more.
